    I had a big night last night and am hungover/have been vomitting all day.

    Was told by my specialist that if I want my liver to recover then I have to give up alcohol.
    i soooo had one of those on saturday. i swear my liver was actually aching on sunday my withdrawal bleed after stopping the bcp has finished so now i'm exciting about TTC officially & so i think it'll be easier to avoid those big nights now! (cept if it's expensive champers!)

    I would buy the first round and order myself a tonic water and ask for a piece of lime in it - then tell people I was drinking gin and tonic. So, the next time it was due for a drink I'd say I'll just have a tonic water this time.

    when i knew i was actually pregnant - abour 4 - 5weeks with #1.
    I had girlfriends fly up to stay with me and we lived in a party town (airlie beach) lol - and so we were out drinking every night over the weekend

    What i did was order my own drinks from the bar (offer to pick their up) and got mocktails!! and they never knew till i told them at 18 weeks lol.

    I just order a soft drink in a short glass - people just assume there is alcohol in it!

    'i've decided to stop drinking since the accident'

    then just turn your back on them and walk away looking into the distance, bold and beautiful style.

    Talking good excuses for clean living

    I am an epileptic, (no really)
    so i had to think of great reasons to not drink, without saying why,

    No thanks, I am on antibiotics
    No thanks I'm driving
    No thanks my yoga teacher says its bad for me
    no thanks my tai chi teacher syas it interferes with my chi energy
    No thanks my buddhist master says its bad karma
    No it intereferes with my anti psychotic meds
    i just dont like it lately
    mind your business
    my father was an alcoholic
    i'm morally against binge drinking
    i'm only 17!!
    i just had one before i drove here
    sorry i've been drinking all day
    i've had a liver transplant
    in a past life i was a drunk prostitute , i'm trying to make it right,
    oh do you drink do you?
    sorry i leave the drinking and swearing to my husband

    whats worse

    on the other hand most of these excuses make people think you are ill and maybe that would be worse than people thinking you were trying to conceive.lol

    theres no shame in it, and the practice is fun.
